Is Lidstrom using a Dolo Spyne as well? Looks like it in today's game against TO

Yeah. Warrior Franchise, Dolo Spyne, Pants (at least shell), CCM HT2, looks like one of Rafalski's visors for full coverage on that broken nose. And a Breath-Right nasal strip of sorts :P

Yes. He has been using it for awhile now.

Hossa has a Vapor XXXX twig.

Hossa has a Vapor XXXX twig.

After his fuel broke in two on a penalty shot I think that was a wise choice.

Luke Schenn is using the one95 stick.

He already broke a stick today in the first but not sure which..

he's never used a rbk twig so that warrior isn't nothing new(well it is but not in the RBK thing.) But I guess hes preferring warrior mits.

Brian Rafalski using a nike bauer helmet now

So my question is this:

What is Warrior doing that they are getting guys to jump ship from either Reebok or Easton and using their gloves and sticks?

Its odd to see guys like Lidstrom who have used Easton forever, using Warrior product now. Even with Dion too, he was an Reebok poster boy and now he is using Warrior gear.

$$$$$ that's how.

I'm assuming they have some pretty deep pockets at Warrior since they are owned by New Balance.

Or just a great product. I don't think that Lidstrom is sponsored by Warrior.

Oh, I shouldn't...

[Sparty4 0]

of course you should!

and i don't think you officially need to be sponsored by a company to have them throw a few dollars your way.

What your not interested in finding out a player has switched helmets or even models of helmet. This is big news that can't go without record.

Could just be a Dolo Spyne with the Savy special paint job, ie black spray paint. He usually blacks out the bottom section of his stick.

neither is Hossa. Hossa's been a Mission poster boy the last few years but yet he seems to favor Warrior sticks and gloves on the ice.

as much as I didn't want to admit it I knew the first time I played with a Warrior Dolomite that it was a great stick.

That would make me spyneless. Or anything at all.
